Overview

Use this method to create a new applicant profile of either of the following types:

individual — if the applicant is a physical person.
company — if the applicant is a legal entity.

In the constructor above, you can see the parameters that can be provided when creating an individual applicant. Find out the specifics of creating a company applicant in the section below.

When creating a new applicant profile, you do not always have to send us pre-filled applicant data, such as the applicant name, date of birth, address, and so on. You only need to send images and get the recognized document data using this method. It is the best way to increase your conversion because rejects of mismatches in names and typos will be excluded.

Each applicant may have several ID documents (as well as additional photos of different documents) attached, such as, for example, an ID card or a passport.

See Applicant life-cycle to view the way an applicant profile goes through from creation to verification.

Tip

If you have requirements to perform data cross-validation and have no possibility to do it on your side, use the fixedInfo object to fill data like names, date of birth, and address.

When using the fixedInfo object, mind that a verification level specified for a particular applicant should include the Applicant data step.

Make sure to save the applicant ID. You may need it for future requests.

Specifics of creating company applicants

When creating a company applicant, make sure to provide a companyInfo object inside the info object. The companyInfo object attributes are required to properly validate the company data during verification. This information is not mandatory to be added upon creation, but make sure to provide it before requesting a check.

`score`	Double	When setting up a questionnaire, you have the option to set up the risk scoring. It means that you can add a value to each possible answer. When the applicant selects this answer, the assigned value is added to the score. You can set up the score for the following question types: `dropdown`, `checkboxes`, `multiple choice`. The section score depends on the score values given to the items it contains. Upon completion of the questionnaire, the system sums up the section score values which results in the entire questionnaire score.
